Chapter 974: The Counterattacking Huaguo Scalpers!

The sixth release of the DreamPad officially began in the early hours of April 28th.

According to the previous rules, pre-orders began on the Internet on April 23rd, and it is not surprising that a total of 7 million regular versions and 700,000 seven-color versions were sold out worldwide, which was sold out within half a day, making those who want to see the weakness of the DreamPad once again deeply disappointed.

This time, the share of China's domestic distribution is much less, from the first 3 million units to 1.5 million units, a drop of half!

Although the number of seven-color DreamPad increased by 10,000 units per directly managed store, fans who were happy to buy DreamPad were disappointed.

The fairy company can't help it.

Last time, 3 million units were supplied to China, and there was an excuse to say that it was for the welfare of the people of the motherland. Anti.

Originally, many experts who study electronic consumption thought that after the iPhone was born, the sales of the DreamPad should decline, because the two are not cheap, and there are overlapping features.

IPHONE HAS THE ADVANTAGE OF BEING MORE PORTABLE AND CAN BE USED AS A MOBILE PHONE COMMUNICATION TOOL, SO NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT THE DREAMPAD, YOU WILL SUFFER.

However, DreamPad has not declined in the slightest, but it can be seen from the sales of the app store that the DreamPad apps sold every day are still growing steadily and rapidly.

Well, the reason why it is said to be an app store is because a few days ago, Fairy Company officially announced the sale of shares in the DreamPad app store, and according to the requirements of the new shareholders. Changed the name of the online store to "APPSOTRE".

The app store that has changed its name has become more and more global, not only belonging to DreamPad as a product, but also showing its determination to become the world's leading smart electronic application in the future.

SINCE THE IPHONE JOINED THE APP STORE, THERE HAS BEEN ANOTHER LEAP FORWARD IN THE NUMBER OF PAID DOWNLOADABLE PROGRAMS, WITH STATISTICS FOR THE LAST FIFTEEN DAYS. The average daily app store sales are $200 million, which is much higher than the previous February and March turnover.

After getting the sales data that is not open to the public, Qiao Gang Leader is a little annoyed that Samsung took advantage, but fortunately, Samsung's smartphone will be on the market in the second half of the year, and he will also be able to get a piece of the pie from Samsung's smartphone.

In fact, Xiao Qi is the one who suffers the most at this stage, after all, the main seller of the app store is his DreamPad, and Samsung and Apple are all enjoying happiness.

But a person's vision. determines how far he'll go.

Xiao Qi does not value the interests at this stage.

THINK ABOUT IT, IN THE FUTURE, APPLE'S IPHONE AND IPAD WILL HAVE MORE THAN 300 MILLION UNITS, AND SAMSUNG'S MOBILE PHONES AND TABLETS WILL SELL 400 MILLION UNITS PER YEAR.

Saying it will directly scare Shijie's richest man Bill children's shoes to death!

Even if Xiao Qi only takes 30% of the profits, and they have to pay various operating expenses, the net profit they get is probably higher than that of selling mobile phones and tablets.

Again, maybe the IPHONE and DreamPad will one day be outdated. There will be a recession, but as long as someone is using it only electronics. Then the app store will never go out of style!

Now, though, there's a strange phenomenon.

That is, on April 20th, when the second batch of DreamPad in Huaguo went on sale, the number of fans in line not only did not decrease, but increased by at least 20% compared to before.

And this time they started queuing five days in advance, and it was the day of the release. It's a sea of people, and the policemen who have maintained order all the way are about to collapse -- who can stand doing this for a long time?

When Xiao Qi received this news, he also felt very strange.

The population of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Shuchuan is more than 100 million. It's not so, when did the loyalty of domestic fans reach such a high level?

As a result, when Xiao Qi came back from the capital for the second time, he learned the reason.

It turns out that 70% of these people in line are scalpers!

DreamPad for sale in China is 10% cheaper than in Hong Kong, 20% cheaper than in the United States, 30% cheaper than Japan, and 40% cheaper than Germany......

Take a 16GB WIFI and 3G function DreamPad as an example, the mainland can be cheaper than the Hong Kong one by 66 US dollars, which is about 500 yuan, this price difference is a bit chicken, and the scalpers have nothing to earn.

But in the United States, the price difference reaches 1,000 yuan, Japan is 1,500 yuan, Germany and Italy are 2,000 yuan, if it is a higher configuration, you can earn more.

Because DreamPad has already started to be sold globally, hunger marketing is not of much use, so now the regulations of the fairy company are limited to 5 DreamPad per user, and scalpers can earn 2000-3000 yuan by queuing for a few days, which is definitely a worthwhile business for them.

So this profit is enough to make scalpers move into action.

As for the remaining 30% of fans, only 10% want to experience the queue, and the remaining 20% are all frightened by scalpers, for fear that their goods will be taken away in advance, and they will have to wait - even if they have already paid, they don't feel safe.

When everyone understands, most of the shares were actually snatched up by scalpers, and it was too late.

This time, less than 500,000 of Huaguo's 1.5 million DreamPad fell into the hands of ordinary fans, and the rest were all served by scalpers, and angry fans began to disclose and denounce this shameless behavior on the website!

Knowing the ins and outs, Xiao Qi's first reaction was to cry and laugh.

IN THE PAST, ONLY THE AMERICAN IPHONE, AND THE KOREAN AND HONG KONG VERSIONS OF VARIOUS MOBILE PHONES AND TABLETS WOULD FLOW INTO THE MAINLAND MARKET FROM HONG KONG AND OTHER PLACES DUE TO THE PRICE DIFFERENCE.

Unexpectedly, now that the products on sale in China are cheap, it will be the turn of fans in Europe and the United States to want to come and get wet.

Although water. There is something wrong with the circulation of goods, but ......

Why did Xiao Qi feel a sense of happiness after hearing the news?

I'm also fighting for our Chinese people!

The boy thought proudly. (To be continued......)
